The wife had just started the trouble of the week, and she was planning to organize all the house works as she liked to rest for a long time, and the heat was severe to the point that it made the children not rest with comfort despite the repeated precautions, and on the twins were Juan and Jose, and they were the two smallest children in the house that they would gather their playthings in their place.
Juan who was angry with the boredom, for gathering his playthings and putting them in his place, and he went to take some shade from the wind because of the sound of loud noise that came from the play. So he was not pleased with what his brother was doing to him, who had taken the ball for a long time from his house, and therefore the discord began between the brothers. So their mother who was in a place nearby to them heard their quarrel the most recent, and she said to them both: Silence you two, and we will go to play the trip. Did you both understand?
They both remained silent after they said at the same time: Good mother… but when their mother left the room, his brother was still feeling annoyed from his brother, and he was saying to him: I have played with your ball mother, and now it is my turn. So his brother answered him while feeling sad: “Mother said that we will play with it together,” so Juan said to him: “But I do not have a ball, and father and mother always say that it is necessary that everything is shared between us.” Then he left crying from the room, and his mother saw him, and she asked him: “Is it possible that you tell me what is the reason for the conflict exactly? Is it indeed because of the ball, or because of what happened between you both a little while ago, for you both did not do that before. Is there from you both one who can tell me the truth.”
Juan did not want his mother to feel tightness from what was happening, so he said to her: “Mother do not bother with the ball. I think my brother feels bad only because of the high degree of the heat, for we all do not feel the coolness in the shade of this weather.” So the mother said: “Good, so upon you both to go to bathe with cold water, then drink a natural juice. What do you think?” Juan answered: “Yes mother, it is a wonderful idea.” Then the mother said: “Good, but if a conflict happens between you both another time, it must end in a quiet way, and now you both must understand each other.” So Juan said: “Good, this is good indeed, oh mother.”
